Pity is Shitty: April 20, 2023

Death of empathy,

rise of sympathy-

pity: it's shitty.

You find ways to relate-

to satiate,

your need to spill-

it's a thrill,

as you command attention,

without apprehension,

as you enjoy this exchange-

one for you to arrange.

Finding ways to dominate the narrative,

for you it is imperative,

to be comparative.

Your turn to speak,

but you never listened.
